Dang, your 98 seats are still immaculate ? That's impressive. To make them perfect all you would need is the cushion. Time takes it toll and they flatten out eventually. Maye yours aren't there yet ? I got at least 100,000 miles on yuh, probably more and I'm about 190 lbs. They've been that way for awhile. Well, the drivers side cushion anyway. However, that being said they really aren't uncomfortable, -doesn't bother me anyway.

I've looked for seats every now and again coming to the same conclusion, they are expensive no doubt.

I'll post up some pictures of my blue truck's seats tomorrow when it's bright outside. I think that you'll be impressed on how well they've held up, considering it's a 98. They don't need anything. I'd love to find another exact set of them. They are colored so that they'd go with about any color exterior. Excuse the dirty carpet. It just got back from a fishing trip, that I wasn't part of. lol

The seats I took out, even the cushions were savable. They really only need the covers only. I found a set of Katskins that I might get later. We'll see what turns up once the snow hits. There will enough totals, I might get lucky off someones oops. lol

My kids tend to use my blue truck more than I do. Matter of fact, my daughter is using my Fusion this week. I need the truck for hauling the bumper and stuff or she'd want it. She's getting ready to move to AL for her husband's schooling for a lawyer's degree. He got a full ride deal, and has a job when they come back. The place he's to be a part of, is who is paying for the schooling. Her car is being sent out by barge this week, so she's got my car.

 

I fixed my quote above for yuh lol.

You found a set of Kardasians ? OH Katskins, needed my specs for that one. Haha, waiting for the totals. You make it sound like Christmas lol.

Yea kids, - good for shacking up with yuh on occasion and borrowing the truck or worse hitting you up for cash, but what we do without them ? Well I can think of a few things like peace, sanity and spare me the drama because I told you so. Did I say 2 things ? But the best parts make up for all that. Sounds like your daughter and son in law are doing well. That's always nice and good to hear. They eventually get on the right track and work out life's challenges. Boy can that be eventful and entertaining to watch lol.

Well when she comes to visit you, give her a list of stuff to bring back with her, save on that AK shipping.

So there's still some spring in the cushions on the 98's seats ? Yea , take a pic show them off lol.

 

We've already gone over the part about me having things sent to her and she forwarding to me. There are a number of things that are only shipped into the continental US, and won't for no reason ship to us or HI. PR sometimes gets things shipped that we can't. Makes no damn sense to me. lol

They had a great income, but they gave up his business and her job as a mortgage trainer for a FCU, so they had good money going there way each month. Like I've said a dozen times, I hope it works out for them and that they get back before I kick the bucket. lol

 

Remember.... I thought it looked like it was sitting wonky.

 

Yes I remember, lol. But if it is actually on flat pavement, it has quite a nice stance. Still lowering it 2 inches in the back will bring it to a level state, so that might be the best look overall. Those 275-70R17's are quite a bit of tire but it did come with 255-70's from Ford, so it is only 2 jumps up. lol. They are 32.2 inches in height. That currently gives me 8 inches of clearance in back and 6 up front.

Since my blue 98 has "F150" license plates, I checked and found that I can get "F150FS" which would match the red truck. I order them this morning after I completely had to reformat my computer drive. Not a good morning that way. lol.

 

That one came with 255's factory ? I thought the 4x4's came with 265's factory. Mine did anyway. So no offload package on that one?

Did you ever verify the engine ? Not sure why they would put a 5four in front of a 8.8...unless it was an engine swap, -4six to 5four.

 

This was AK this morning:

 

Close, but mine was windows 10. I upgraded Windows 7, and had to revert the whole system back. I kept having screen problems (shaking, multi overlays of the same items, so clicking on something was reallly strange. You didn't know what you'd get.

That bad part was my backup discs, just done, had a glitch in #2 so nothing was reloading to my system. I have over 15000 mp3's that I'm having a hell of a time repopulating. I've gotten about 9000 of them so far, but with 6000 to go, it is slow going. Thanks to Itunes, it put everything is separate folders, so each artist has at least 3 click to get to the center, then 3 more to click out, then to copy and paste them to another folder. I'll get there, but it will take a while. lol

 

Windows 7 is much better. I bought my Wife a Windows 10 Dell notebook for Christmas, and it's always got some glitch. It hangs all the time with that damn "thinking circle". Hell I'd rather have XP than 10.
